Well, I haven't wrote a "real" blog post for awhile now and I have some feelings I need to get off my chest. My latest picture topic was a mess and speaking of messes, that's what I feel my head has been lately. Messy! We've been talking about having another baby for some time now and after my doctor gave us the okay, it's been seriously weighing on my mind. I'm ready (as crazy as that may be after our first two pregnancies), I am! Danny is finally on board and it's just not happening. It's only been a few months but every month we're not pregnant is heartbreaking for me. And then on top of that, it seems I hear of new people being pregnant every day, which is great but it makes it even harder on me. I just don't understand why this isn't easier for us...the whooooole baby process. It seems like so many people get pregnant the first time they try and then they go on to have a simple, normal pregnancy and birth. Why can't we have that, just once? Don't we deserve "simplicity" once in awhile? Is there something wrong with us, is there a reason everything has to be so damn hard, is it a sign that we are just supposed to give up on this dream? Blech...

So, you are probably thinking that I'm terrible at this weekly business...and you are completely right about that. However, it doesn't bother me even slightly ;)

We recently went on vacation for almost a week and it was amazing! So great to get away from all of the chaos. It wasn't a super relaxing get-a-way however. We went skiing in the mountains and I was exhausted every evening and was in bed early...seems about right on track with my every day life back home. Asher was a stud on the trip, he rode great in the car and it's a 12 hour trip one way! He's been a bit of a handful since being back home but he's a boy so I shouldn't expect any less right? We make messes daily...usually big ones but I haven't captured any of them on camera lately. So, with this week's challenge (and I use "week" loosely here haha), I opted to take a picture of a whole different type of mess that has showed its' lovely head -no pun intended- Asher's blondie curls! They are exceptionally crazy right after bath time. So, here ya go...our latest "mess" ;)

I know I know...slacking again. I don't have much time to post much but just wanted to pop in quick and post my week eight picture. It's a picture I took of my pup, Lucy, while she was sleeping and I edited to black and white. I really wanted to take a picture of something that was actually black and white naturally but it just didn't happen this week. Oh well ;)

About Me

Hi, my name is Rebecca! I'm a small town girl from rural North Dakota. I love simple things like watching the sun set, gentle rains, soft pillows, hot showers, sweet kisses, and good home-cooked meals! I'm happily married to my husband, Danny, since June 2007. He's my best friend in the world!
The reason I started this blog was so that I had a place voice my feelings. A place to tell our story. Maybe this will give some people inspiration, maybe it will entertain some, or maybe people will just bypass it all together. It doesn't matter to me. Read as you wish and take from it what you will....this is first and foremost, a place for me. A place to speak my heart.
